Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Dear Members, I have created a small MP3 wherein I have dared to sing myself : Charanashruga Rahita Nataraja stotram.(I will upload a pdf later) The story of this rare stotra goes like this... This hymn is by Sage Patanjali, the author and comiler of the famous Yogasutra.Once upon a time, as the story of the origin of the hymn goes, Nandi, Shiva's carrier would not allow Patanjali Muni to have Darshan of His master, Lord Shiva(in the form of Nataraja of Chidambaram). In order to reach Lord Shiva, Patanjali, with his mastery over sanskrit grammatical forms, spontaneously composed this prayer in priase of the Lord without using any extended syllable(Dheergham).i.e., without a "charana" and "shringa" --leg or horn, to apparently tease Nandi. Lord Shiva was quickly pleased, gave Dasrahan to Patanjali Muni, and also danced to the lilting tune of this song.(Please excuse my gross voice,Iam nowwhere when compred to such greats!). The place where this incidence is said to have happened is Chidambaram(also known as Thillai) located about hundred miles from Chennai,Tamilnadu,India. The stotra is abit difficult to recite but with a couple of trails, one can defintely byheart it.

It is said that one who commits to memory this stotra in this meter will reach the assembly of Gods this birth itself. Lord Shiva takes care of all his/her needs, if thus memorized and recited daily with devotion. I have added pictures to make the whole thing interesting. Jaya shiva shakambhari! Yours Yogically, Shreeram Balijepalli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
